Billing & Subscriptions

Manage your SMVue subscription, payment methods, and seat assignments.

Billing & Subscriptions is where you manage your SMVue plan, payment methods, and seat purchases.

Access Billing by going to Settings → Billing (Owner only).

Plans

SMVue has two plans: Solo and Team. Standard manager accounts start a 14-day cardless trial when a CRM is connected, before selecting a paid plan.

The Manager seat is $150/month and is the only paid seat. Rep seats and Executive seats are free and unlimited. Executive seats are read-only; Rep seats are scoped to the rep's own workspace and include narrow task-status and Inbox reply actions. For the latest pricing, open Settings → Billing in the app, which always shows live prices, or ask the in-app support chat.

Solo

For a single sales manager (or an advisor running a client's sales org).

  • 1 Manager seat (you) — $150/month
  • Unlimited Rep seats (free, scoped to each rep's own data)
  • Unlimited Executive seats (free, read-only)
  • All core coaching tools: dashboard, pipeline, meetings & prep, performance, action items, notes
  • CRM & calendar integrations
  • Sales Coach

Best For: A solo manager and their reps

Team

For organizations with multiple managers — custom pricing.

  • Everything in Solo, plus:
  • Multiple Manager seats (each manager seat is paid)
  • Centralized billing for multiple managers
  • Multi-manager organization and team grouping

Best For: Orgs with multiple managers

Contact: sales@smvue.com for Team plan pricing

Add-ons

Add-ons can be purchased on top of either plan. Add-on pricing isn't public — contact us for add-on pricing.

Adding Seats

Manager Seats

The Manager seat is $150/month and is the only paid seat. The Solo plan includes one Manager seat; adding more paid Manager seats requires the Team plan.

  1. Go to Settings > Billing
  2. Click Manage Seats
  3. Increase Manager seat count
  4. Click Update
  5. Confirm

Pricing:

  • $150/month per Manager seat (Team plan uses custom pricing — contact sales)

Executive Seats

Executive seats are free, read-only, and unlimited on every plan. Existing workspace owners can invite a member from Settings > Team and assign the Executive seat type for read-only access inside that workspace. A new organization-level Executive instead chooses Sales Executive during signup, creates the oversight organization, and invites managers into linked manager workspaces.

Rep Seats

Rep seats are always free and unlimited on every plan. They are scoped to the rep's own data and allow only the focused participation described in the Rep Seat guide.

No need to purchase Rep seats — just invite reps from Settings > Team.

  • Full price starts Jan 1

Failed Payments

If a payment fails:

  • Stripe automatically retries the charge for a while, with no immediate interruption to service.
